    Guanidine production by plant homoarginine-6-hydroxylases

    Dietmar Funck, Malte Sinn ... Jörg S Hartig
    2-Oxoglutarate and Fe(II)-dependent dioxygenases from clade C23 are the major source of guanidine in plants and release guanidine from arginine or homoarginine by C5 or C6 hydroxylation, respectively.

    Rapid translocation of NGR proteins driving polarization of PIN-activating D6 protein kinase during root gravitropism

    Ivan Kulich, Julia Schmid ... Jiří Friml
    Negative Gravitropic Response of roots (NGRs), pivotal for root gravitropic bending, are indispensable for the gravity-induced translocation of D6 protein kinase, a key regulator of PIN3 auxin efflux carrier activity.

    High-resolution kinetics of herbivore-induced plant volatile transfer reveal clocked response patterns in neighboring plants

    Jamie Mitchel Waterman, Tristan Michael Cofer ... Matthias Erb
    Real-time volatile emission kinetics reveal stress volatiles emitted from herbivore-damaged plants can sequentially prime and induce defense responses in undamaged plants following distinct temporal patterns.

    Developmental patterning function of GNOM ARF-GEF mediated from the cell periphery

    Maciek Adamowski, Ivana Matijević, Jiří Friml
    The plant developmental regulator GNOM performs its unique function from the cell periphery, through sequence features present in all its domains, and not by the control of endocytosis.

    A translation proofreader of archaeal origin imparts multi-aldehyde stress tolerance to land plants

    Pradeep Kumar, Ankit Roy ... Rajan Sankaranarayanan
    Genetic, biochemical, and bioinformatic analyses reveal how expanding metabolic repertoire interferes with fundamental processes like protein synthesis inside cells and the role of D-aminoacyl-tRNA deacylase2 in protecting these processes during terrestrialisation.

    Positive selection and relaxed purifying selection contribute to rapid evolution of male-biased genes in a dioecious flowering plant

    Lei Zhao, Wei Zhou ... Hong-Tao Li
    Computational analyses, for the first time in plants, reveal how male-biased genes evolve faster than female-biased and unbiased genes.
